Attendance is required for both lecture and lab. Prompt attendance will significantly impact the student’s ability to fulfill the requirements of the course. For that reason, the instructor will drop your grade one full letter (10%) for two (2) unexcused absences. The instructor reserves the right to drop students on the 3rdunexcused absence. Every two (2) unexcused tardy’s will result in a 5% penalty to your overall grade. Additionally, attendance and tardiness will be taken into consideration for students “falling between two grades.”

Evaluation of Student Performance (Grades):

Each art assignment and test/exam will be worth a designated number of points indicated on the assignment summary. Projects are due at the time and on the due date indicated. Learning to plan for and meet deadlines is an important component of the business world. Projects turned in after the deadline will be penalized a minimum of 5% and projects that are, will drop one full letter grade for each week late. The instructor reserves the right to curve the grades. Attendance is computed as part of your total points earned. At the end of the semester the points earned divided by the total points possible will determine the student’s grade”

90%-100% = A

80%-89% = B
